Kent Miller’s current and on-going project showcases artists, creators and friends he met along the way. Many people have moved in and out of his life over his 25 years working as a photographer. This project takes photography back in time by using a 5x7 large format Linhof camera. To take it deeper into the past, Kent is using as much old (1920-1970’s out dated) film as he can find. Getting film from the 50’s is not an easy task, but he says it’s worth the energy.
